This series is each devoted to a decade of British life and
contains around 300 photographs which were hand-picked by PA
Photos' own archivists. Most have lain unseen since they were first
used as news pictures and each image has been scanned especially,
many from glass plates, to ensure the best possible quality of
reproduction. These photos tell a fascinating story: alongside the
major events that constitute formal history are found the smaller
things that had significance for ordinary people at the time. These
cameras have recorded for posterity everything in their view and
each picture tells an eloquent tale, of occurrences big and small,
which have shaped the people and the face of Britain today.PA
Photos is the photography arm of the PA Group, which also owns the
The Press Association, the UK's national news agency. Established
in the late 19th Century, the PA has been capturing editorial
photography for 140 years, resulting in an extraordinary archive of
over 15 million images recording British life over more than a
century.
